I went up to my horse, which was lying on the ground and panting heavily; moved with pity for the companion of my adventurous journeys, I beat over it, placed in my waist-belt the pistols that were in the bolsters, and unfastening a gourd of rum hanging from my saddlebow, began washing the eyes, ears, nostrils, and mouth of the poor beast, whose sides quivered, and which this seemed to restore to life. Half an hour passed in this way; the horse, somewhat refreshed, had f it on its legs, and with instinct that distinguishes the race had discovered a spring close by where it quenched its thirst AN EXTENSIVE HTTSTON " Take exclaimed the doctor, eyeing lier from hoad to foot—"take!

A German, who had not paid much attention to learning English,had a horse stolen from his bam, whereupon he banded in the following advertisement to the printer:— "Von night de oder day, yen I was bin awalto in my sleep,I hear something rat I tinks vas not yust right in my barn, and I yust out shumps to bed and runs rait de barn out, and ven I vaa dere coom I sees vat my pig gray iron mare, ho raa bin tied loose and run rait de stable off,and ever whoo *11 him back bring, I yust so much pay him as vat bin cushtomary.»lleing noatly fitted up, and having just supplied myself with two new and very hanasoine chairs, I am prepared to make my friends and customers entirely eomfortahle, and to shave them in the best manner.

At this moment I saw, about ten paces from me two eyes that shone like live coals, and looked at me with strange fixedness. I was a man of tried courage, audacious, and even rash on occasions ; but alone in the gloomy solitude in the midst of the black night, surrounded by ferocious beasts, I felt fear assail me against my will; I breathed with difficulty; my teeth were clenched, an icy perspiration poured down my whole person, and I was on the point of abandoning myself to my fat*. This sudden discouragement disappeared before a powerful will, and I, sustained by the instinct of self-preservation, and that hope which springs eternal in the human breast, prepared for an unequal struggle. The horse burst into a snort of terror, and ran off. gCALES! SCALES! I was gently raised by the head and feet, and with infinite precautions transported from the improvised fortress where I had so long fought, and laid on a bod of leaves they had gotten ready, near one of the firea.

A frightful concert of howls and roan broke out on all sides at the sound of the horse's flight, and huge shadows bounded along past me. A violent blast swept the sky, and the moon lit up the desert with its mournful, sickly rays. Not far off the Bio Negro ran between two scarped banks, and I saw all round me the oompact masses of a virgin forest, an ineztrieabl* chaos of rocks' piled up pell mell, and of ftsaurM out of which clumps of trees grew. Here and there creepers were intertwined describing the wildest curvos, and only stopped their ramifications at the river. The soil, composed of sind and that detritus which abounds is Bomth American forests, gave way beneath the foot. I now'discovcred where 1 was. I was more than fifteen leagues from any habitation, on the outskirts of an immense forest, the only one in Patagonia which no ranger had as yet beea bold eriWigh to explore, such horror and mystery did its gloomy depths appear to reveal. Near the forest a limpid stream burst through the rocks, whose banks were trampled by numerous traces of the olaws of wild beasts. This stream served them, in fact, as a watering-place, when they left their dens after sunset, and went in search of food and drink. As a living testimony of this supposition, two magnifioent tigers, male and female, were standing on tho bank, and watching with anxious eyes tho sporting of their cubs. Clapping his hands to his pocket, Pet ascertained that both watch and purse were missing. "Murther!" he cried, gesticulating like a whale with a dosen harpoons in his side; "the thafe ! the spalpeen I I knew hin well wid all his family.

Sudenly I was attacked by two tigar cats, rolled on the platform, struggling with them. The wild beasts had fled before the new comers who hastened to light fires to keep them at bay daring the rest of the night. Two of these men, holding lighted torches, began seeking me, whose cries of distress had besought their help.

A German, who had not paid much attention to learning English,had a horse stolen from his bam, whereupon he banded in the following advertisement to the printer:— "Von night de oder day, yen I was bin awalto in my sleep,I hear something rat I tinks vas not yust right in my barn, and I yust out shumps to bed and runs rait de barn out, and ven I vaa dere coom I sees vat my pig gray iron mare, ho raa bin tied loose and run rait de stable off,and ever whoo *11 him back bring, I yust so much pay him as vat bin cushtomary.»lleing noatly fitted up, and having just supplied myself with two new and very hanasoine chairs, I am prepared to make my friends and customers entirely eomfortahle, and to shave them in the best manner.

At this moment I saw, about ten paces from me two eyes that shone like live coals, and looked at me with strange fixedness. I was a man of tried courage, audacious, and even rash on occasions ; but alone in the gloomy solitude in the midst of the black night, surrounded by ferocious beasts, I felt fear assail me against my will; I breathed with difficulty; my teeth were clenched, an icy perspiration poured down my whole person, and I was on the point of abandoning myself to my fat*. This sudden discouragement disappeared before a powerful will, and I, sustained by the instinct of self-preservation, and that hope which springs eternal in the human breast, prepared for an unequal struggle. The horse burst into a snort of terror, and ran off. gCALES! SCALES! I was gently raised by the head and feet, and with infinite precautions transported from the improvised fortress where I had so long fought, and laid on a bod of leaves they had gotten ready, near one of the firea.

A frightful concert of howls and roan broke out on all sides at the sound of the horse's flight, and huge shadows bounded along past me. A violent blast swept the sky, and the moon lit up the desert with its mournful, sickly rays. Not far off the Bio Negro ran between two scarped banks, and I saw all round me the oompact masses of a virgin forest, an ineztrieabl* chaos of rocks' piled up pell mell, and of ftsaurM out of which clumps of trees grew. Here and there creepers were intertwined describing the wildest curvos, and only stopped their ramifications at the river. The soil, composed of sind and that detritus which abounds is Bomth American forests, gave way beneath the foot. I now'discovcred where 1 was. I was more than fifteen leagues from any habitation, on the outskirts of an immense forest, the only one in Patagonia which no ranger had as yet beea bold eriWigh to explore, such horror and mystery did its gloomy depths appear to reveal. Near the forest a limpid stream burst through the rocks, whose banks were trampled by numerous traces of the olaws of wild beasts. This stream served them, in fact, as a watering-place, when they left their dens after sunset, and went in search of food and drink. As a living testimony of this supposition, two magnifioent tigers, male and female, were standing on tho bank, and watching with anxious eyes tho sporting of their cubs. Clapping his hands to his pocket, Pet ascertained that both watch and purse were missing. "Murther!" he cried, gesticulating like a whale with a dosen harpoons in his side; "the thafe ! the spalpeen I I knew hin well wid all his family.
